Straight couples don't have to be monogamous to be married or married to be monogamous. Monogamy no more defines marriage than the presence of children does. Monogamy isn't compulsory and its absence doesn't invalidate a marriage.
I think serial monogamy says it all.
Promiscuity is like never reading past the first page. Monogamy is like reading the same book over and over.
I can't fly a flag for monogamy or whatever the opposite is; it depends on the person and on the situation.
Monogamy is like a 40-watt bulb. It works, but it's not enough.
You have to check out 'March of the Penguins'. Penguins are the really ideal example of monogamy.
I believe in monogamy if that's what a couple decides upon together, but it all depends on the personal history and culture of the two involved.
I was always anti-marriage. I didn't understand monogamy. I couldn't figure out how that could last. And then I met Bryn and I started to understand the beauty of constancy and history and change and going on the roller coaster with someone - of having a partner in life.
Monogamy is a tricky thing. I don't think it's for everyone, but I've chosen that life, and there's no question in my relationship.
I think monogamy is a little unnatural, if I'm totally honest. You change. Things alter. It's the exception rather than the rule and I think it's exceptional to cope with it and manage it. It's hard work.
